Le Niger, Voie Ouverte Notre Empire Africain

Written at the height of the scramble for Africa, this influential book argues that the Niger River is the key to France's imperial aspirations on the continent. Drawing on his own experiences as a colonial administrator and explorer, Eugène Armand Lenfant makes a compelling case for the strategic importance of West Africa and the crucial role that French influence can play in shaping its future.
